Julie Rhee

Dr Rhee is awesome and she explains everything in the simplest way so that it is not hard to understand. Also I absolutely love her and would recommend her to anyone who is trying to conceive and having issues doing so.

If you want quality care and don't want to be treated like a number or check then she is the person to see.

Right now we are currently doing the work up process and aiming for August 2020 to do the procedure for egg retrieval and Invocell. I am needing this grant to help pay for it as me and my husband do not have any kids and we would love to have at least one.

It will cost 7,200 dollars to do the procedure

No comments she suggested what was best for me and I completely agreed.

Every time i met with Dr. Rhee she came in prepared and knew about my husband and my background prior to coming for any appointment. She had an idea and options and helped us through them providing us with any and all informatiom needed to make decisions. I truly feel like she has cared throughout my entire time coming to Vios.

Ask questions. Even if you think theyre silly! Preface with this might sound silly but...if you want, but ask! Although we had aron of things deter our procedure, insurance was my biggest obstacle with Vios which is/was a business/financial dept issue. Any bump we ran into reagrfing our treatments and procedures Dr. Rhee helped us through until we felt confident moving forward.

She used low dose flare protocol with ovidrel. She retrieved 2x the amount of eggs as my first RE.

We transferred 1 because we only had 1 come back normal from pgs testing. But if we had had more, i believe she wouldnt have transferred more due to my being 35yo. However, we never discussed in detail because it wasnt an option for us; therefore, thats not to say she wouldnt have transferred multiples.

Its hard to say since i dealt mostly with the nurses. Sometimes I felt like everything was very overwhelming and information didn't get passed down how I should have been. But since I didn't really deal with Dr. Rhee I feel like I can't really judge it based on her.

Make sure you ask specific questions and know exactly what you need. Alot of times I felt rushed and left feeling like I was overwhelmed and didn't have all the information I needed or wanted.

I really don't remember the protocol.

I don't exactly know. I had insurance that I paid $435/month for. In 1 year for 4 egg retrievals, I paid about $25,000 out of pocket. There seemed to be alot of hidden charges that would just come up randomly. Not all medication were covered under insurance and were expensive.

My age determined if I wanted to transfer 1 or 2

She is very knowledgeable. She had answers to all of my questions. I had a health scare after having my last son which resulted in an emergency partial hysterectomy. I am now more aware of risks and want to know all of the what if’s. Dr. Rhee was very compassionate to my situation which made me feel like I wasn’t just a number. She is also very sweet. She made me feel very comfortable to ask her anything.

Make a consultation with her because you love her.

I started by taking estradiol until my levels were ready to start injections. I started with nightly injections of 150 units of menopur and 225 units of follistim. I had several visits to have my bloodwork monitored and to have an internal ultrasound done of my ovaries. After a few days I added a ganarelix injection in the morning. I did this routine for 11 days. On day 12 I did a trigger shot of novarrel 10000 units, 450 units of follistim, and I started a z-pack. Then 2 days later (36 hours) I had my egg retrieval done. This resulted in 11 follicles retrieved. Of the 11, 8 were mature and 7 fertilized. We have a few more days to know how many made it to day 5 blastocysts.

Retrieval 8,600 Transfer 3,500 Meds just for retrieval 5,000 Consult 300 Fda costs 500 per person involved Pgs close to 9000 Psych eval for my husband and I and carrier and husband a little over 2000

Dr. Rhee was very thorough. In work up she tested for things that my previous fertility clinic didn’t even mention and ended up discovering a few small factors that could be contributing to my infertility. She did regular retesting to make sure the treatment for those was working. She also had a much more involved IUI protocol than previous doctor which made me feel like everything was being done to ensure the highest chance of success. While I don’t see her at every visit, when she sees me in the clinic she recognizes me and makes me feel like i matter as a person.

Be prepared for a thorough investigation of your health / work up. Also, Dr. Rhee is very professional and straight forward so expect honest, blunt information in your consultations with her.

We have only done 1 IUI. CD 3 baseline with labs and ultrasound. CD 3-5, letrozole 5mg. CD 10 monitoring with labs and ultrasound. Based on my labs and ultrasound, I was informed to trigger on the evening of CD 10 and come in for IUI on CD 12. No post-IUI progesterone due to previous issues with this. Will do an in office pg test 2 weeks after IUI

IUI 1200 diagnostics all covered by insurance so not sure. Genetic carrier screening $99 self pay if insurance doesn’t cover.

Dr. Rhee was knowledgeable, but concise. Before leaving Vios, after conceiving and determining our pregnancy was healthy, she did seem genuinely happy for us. However, due to having a limited number of interactions actually with her, it is hard to go much further in depth than that.

That you will have many more interactions with the nurses and other staff than with Dr. Rhee.

We were lucky to have success with only 1 IUI cycle! I had a total of 2 transvaginal ultrasounds and baseline bloodwork prior to IUI to determine when follicles and hormones were ready. I was on femara for 5 days and took a trigger shot to trigger ovulation when my follicles were at the size that the doctor desired - 36 hours prior to IUI.

For all the testing, we paid about $1,200 with insurance coverage, including copays. For IUI, we paid $1200, which included all testing, IUI, and pregnancy check, but did not include prescriptions. All prescriptions prior to pregnancy cost about $250, with some being covered by insurance and others not being covered.

Dr. Rhee was amazing. She took her time checking in with my husband and I and explaining everything to us. She never seemed rushed nor did we ever feel rushed. When treatments had to be changed mid-course she was compassionate and honest with us. I highly recommend Dr. Rhee!

You will be very happy with Dr. Rhee. She is compassionate and honest so don’t hesitate to ask questions (all of them)!

For IVF and our fresh transfer we started with ultrasounds and blood work. We also gentic tested both my husband and myself. For IVF we did the normal monitoring (ultrasounds/bloodwork). Our fresh transfer resulted in a chemical pregnancy. To prepare for our frozen transfer we did a hydrosaline sonohystogram a few weeks before transfer. We transferred 2 embryos and are expecting twin girls in September.

We are very lucky and our insurance covered a big chunk of our treatment. I can’t remember the specifics but my best guess would be $3000

I would say Dr. Rhee prefers to transfer one embryo but was very open to us transferring two. She was honest about the risks of twin (multiples) pregnancy.

When seeking out a Fertility Specialist I was looking for a young, knowledgeable, and kind doctor. Julie Rhee is just that. She is positive, but also upfront with her findings and opinions. I feel as though she asks an appropriate amount of questions and is an active listener when I am speaking to her.

I was able to have A LOT of testing done with my gynecologist before seeing Dr. Rhee. Like Ultrasound, bloodwork, an HSG, and my husband had a semen analysis. Having all of this testing completed before seeing Julie Rhee was so beneficial for us. She was able to look at our results and we had a plan of action whenever I left my very first appointment with her.

On day 3 of my cycle, I had bloodwork and my baseline ultrasound (follicles and lining looked as they should on day 3) . Dr. Rhee put me on Letrozole days 3-7 of my cycle to get my follicles to mature. On day 10 of my cycle I went back in to get bloodwork and to have a saline ultrasound. This was to check my uterus for polyps/fibroids/abnormalities. (It all came back perfect!) On cycle day 11 my husband gave me an Ovidrel shot in my stomach and on day 13 the IUI was done in office. Right now (3/5/18) I am in my tww following the IUI.

My consultation appointment was $300. My initial bloodwork/US are still pending with insurance. But for the IUI, it was $1200 out of pocket, as our insurance pays $0. The Ovidrel shot was around $120.

She was the third doctor we went to for fertility treatment. She was the first one to actually get to know us and help us get pregnant. She answered every single question we had and explained everything to us at each visit. We found out through another doctor that my husband’s sperm count was very high but not many of them were actually “good”. What Dr.Rhee found out was that I actually had a very low egg count for my age (24). Which we had no clue about. After a couple consultations she went in and checked my tubes and found some minor scar tissue from an accident I had and cleared it out. After that she told us that our best chance of getting pregnant would be to do IVF because they could not tell why exactly we weren’t getting pregnant. We had some minor issues but nothing that would cause us to never get pregnant. She said that if she could control majority of the process then our chance of getting pregnant would be high. We decided to start the IVF process the next month. When I was supposed to start my medications we found out the price of my medicine was going to be on the very high side and we decided not to go forth with the cycle and just take some time to think about it. We actually got pregnant at home with timed intercourse as Dr.Rhee told us to do because it couldn’t hurt to keep trying at home and now we have a 4 month baby boy! Since sharing my story on social media several of my friends have reached out to me and are seeing Dr.Rhee because I recommend them to her. We are very thankful for everything her and her office did to help us.

Have hope and trust her.

We never went through a cycle with her so I can’t help on this part.

I would say she wasn’t the cheapest but wasn’t the most expensive Dr. either.

N/A

Dr. Rhee was was very caring and spent an hour with us in each consultation. She made sure we knew the pros and cons of each option (IUI or IVF). She explained the tests that would be run and made me feel at ease.

None

My first round of tests were diagnostic blood work and ultrasounds. she then ordered a saline ultrasound. I was a nervous wreck for the saline ultrasound, but Dr. Rhee talked to me through the exam so I knew what to expect. I start my baseline testing for our first IVF cycle next Friday. I have a tentative calendar of events for that cycle but can not elaborate at this time as it is in progress.

I am still in progress so not sure how much overall cost of IVF will be. My insurance covers a chunk of the procedure, but we are estimating roughly $7k to be the amount owed by us.

Dr. Rhee suggests transferring one embryo. Due to my size she said multiples would put me as high risk and she wants to avoid that if possible.

Dr. Rhee's strengths are her extensive blood workup, communicating effectively, listening attentively, gives options to various problems a person may have. Things that I wish more of Dr. Rhee. Doing a follow up after certain amount of failed IUIs, have her do the IUIs in the clinic, and say how much everything may cost upfront after baseline blood work is done for certain procedures.

If you have any medical concerns that you think might hinder you from getting pregnant, do not hesitate to ask Dr. Rhee.

They would have to jump start ovulation for me. They would induce a period which they gave me Estradiol, then after that with careful timing and uterine ultrasounds would have me take Progesterone and if and once ovulation occurred told me which day to take my trigger shot for Ovidrel with a specific time. After I gave myself the trigger shot, they had me come in for the IUI procedure. I laid down for a short while and then I went about my day as normally as instructed. After a couple weeks they check your blood work to see if your pregnant. They can usually give you results the same day if you do early labs.

IUI cost 5000 per IUI. Ovidrel 100. estradoil est 30, progesterone 20, IVF is 10000 I believe. That's not including the medication anywhere between 5000 to 8000 and anesthesia 2500, and egg freezing 2000 (not so sure exact cost for freezing, it is priced for 8 eggs).

If I was going to have IVF Dr. Rhee had told us they retrieve a certain number of eggs and what are vital you can freeze which it costs to freeze on a yearly bases.

Dr. Rhee is a brilliant but down to earth physician. She is easily approachable and communicates well. I was given her email address and used it sparingly, but it was very reassuring that I could send an email at any time if I needed to. Her approach is thoughtful and individualized. I was interested in some testing that was not standard of care, and I was impressed by her openness to review the relevant medical literature, contact the primary investigator of the study, and facilitate testing after it was determined that I was an appropriate candidate. It may have turned out that the testing and treatment for this condition tipped the balance towards favoring embryo implantation at my next transfer. I always felt like I understood the plan and that I was an important member of the team. I felt supported during my treatment and that my outcome mattered deeply to Dr Rhee. She was optimistic but never sugar coated my results.

Trust her. Dr. Rhee has your back.

Saline US: 1 adhesion found. Hysteroscopy: adhesion take down, scar tissue cleaned up from previous misscarriage HSG completed: normal Letrozole IUI X 3: Rational: PCOS, needed some help stimulating ovulation; mild male factor. Letrozole resulted in thin lining that did not respond to estrogen supplementation. All 3 IUI were negative. Stim cycle: Antagonist Protocol due to PCOS with Lupron, Gonal-F, and Menopur. HCG trigger. Prophylactic Cabergoline to prevent OHSS. Egg Retrieval: Freeze All. 17 eggs retrieved, 14 fertilized with ICSI, 11 day 3 embryos, 5 blastocysts sent for PGS testing. 3 euploid embryos. Frozen Transfer #1: Required escalating doses of estrogen patches that were not effective in thickening lining. Added Menopur injections which did the trick. Transferred after 5 days of IM Progesterone: Negative. Endometrial biopsies sent to evaluate for reasons while embryo may not have implanted (at my request). No chronic endometritis. Beta-3-Integrin absent. This is a cell adhesion molecule. Monthly Lupron Depot X 3 injections Mock Transfer Cycle #1 for ERA with letrozole and Menopur: Lining too thin, aborted cycle. Mock Transfer Cycle #2 for ERA: modified natural to let my own gonadotropins grow my lining instead. Endometrial biopsies performed at day 5 and day 7 of IM Progesterone and sent for ERA (Igenomix). Results: Window of implantation best at 6 full days of progesterone. Frozen Embryo Transfer # 2: Modified Natural Cycle FET with 6 full days of IM progesterone prior to transfer. Result: Currently pregnant in second trimester.

Freeze all IVF cycle: $12,500. FET: $2,900.

Dr. Rhee was okay with 1-2 embryos. I strongly desired eSET and she was supportive.

Dr. Rhee had a great bedside manner. When we first went to see her, she did her due diligence by testing both my husband and I myself, came up with treatment solutions, explained all of them and left it up to us to decide. The course of treatment was always communicated clearly and I felt that I knew what to expect. When we had set backs, she was patient with us and adjusted the plan.

Be patient. The entire process is hard and can take time, but it does work. Do not lose faith.

My husband and I decided that IVF would be the best plan to help us get pregnant. The process was carefully explained to us before we started and when we were going through it, i was constantly monitored and my meds/dosage were often adjusted to make sure everything was optimal. While there was a schedule to follow, Dr. Rhee explained that everyone responds differently and adjustments are made. I am so glad they carefully monitored me. I was able to get 12 eggs from retrieval and 5 were able to be fertilized and frozen. Our fresh transfer was unsuccessful, but since we had quality embryos, we were able to jump into a frozen transfer very quickly after the failure with the fresh. The frozen transfer worked and I am now pregnant into my second trimester.

The costs were typical costs for an IVF. I felt as though it was in line with research we had done with what IVF actually costs.

Yes, Dr. Rhee always recommended that we only transfer 1. Through both transfers, we listened to her advice and only did the 1 each time.

Dr. Rhee is amazing. We have been candid from our very first consultation that we were nearing the end of our fertility journey, but wanted to try one more doctors perspective. She was willing to work with us on what she thought would be most successful for us. Even when things didn't turn out like we'd hoped, she called and talked to us and just let us know that she was sorry and that she is always thinking of the next steps we could try, if we wanted to, but never any pressure. She was extremely thorough with us, doing just about every test under the sun to make sure we had the best quality embryos to transfer with a perfectly healthy and capable uterus. That way should our journey come to an end without a baby, that we could live without regrets, knowing we did everything we could. Couldn't be happier with our choice of RE.

Make sure you ask questions, she is always happy to talk to you about how she came to her decisions, makes you feel more comfortable going forward.

We did an IUI cycle with femara because it was one low cost intervention that we hadn't tried yet. I felt I had ovulated earlier that anticipated and Dr. Rhee was able to get us in quickly for 2 IUIs 24 hrs apart. Treatment was negative, but we felt we needed to try an "easy" approach just in case it worked out for us. We then moved on to IVF with Cetrotide. This was a new protocol for me doing IVF but nothing else had worked so we were willing to give it a chance. My body did not like cetrotide, I had a lower number of eggs retrieved and poor quality embryos. We did not have any embryos to freeze for genetic testing or for transfer. She then decided to go back to the lupron I had been on with previous cycles and my body responded much better. We did 2 retrievals for embryo banking and PGS testing with the same protocol. We ended up with 7 embryos tested with PGS and 2 were normal. We have done receptivity testing with pre and post receptive results and transferred 1 embryo which unfortunately was not successful.

Cost for treatments are comparable to other clinics I have been to. I feel they are fair and willing to work with you on payment options.

Dr Rhee was willing to let us decide if we wanted a single embryo transfer or transfer 2 embryos. She let us know that a eSET is the most recommended and gave use the pros/cons and percentage of likelihood we would be successful with both eSET or transferring two. We appreciated her insight, but ultimately it was up to me and my husband, with Dr. Rhee's guidance.

Dr. Rhee made it a point to explain all potential risks and benefits of certain tests and procedures. With full understanding, we were comfortable in taking any advice she offered. In testing, she discovered an issue that required surgery. Dr. Rhee made every effort to make us feel calm and comfortable before, during and after said procedure, even taking the time to discuss it afterwards with family that accompanied me. She remained compassionate and optimistic throughout or entire experience with VIOS.

Be calm and remain hopeful. Infertility can lead you on a roller coaster of emotions that Dr. Rhee makes every effort to understand.

Being diagnosed with unexplained infertility, my husband and I felt a bit defeated as to what course of treatment would best suit our situation. Dr. Rhee explained all options including the costs, pros, cons and success rates. After initial testing showed that both my husband and I were healthy, we chose IUI. After 5 days of chlomid, followed by the trigger shot, we went in for our procedure. We were thrilled to learn 2 weeks later that the IUI was successful and that we are expecting our little bundle due this Fall. Even at our post-pregnancy consult, Dr. Rhee was just as excited to learn that we had success the first time around, as we had been warned that it wasn't particularly common.

We were one of the few with little to no fertility coverage through our insurance. Dr. Rhee took the time to explain what would be most financially feasible and also explained that we would have access to CareCredit, if needed. Our total cost would not be the average, thus I have chosen to withhold actual figures. Any time I received an EOB or bill that needed clarification on, Lisa was quick to offer insight and explanation. Dr. Rhee's office went so far as to resubmit billing for a procedure that was coded incorrectly. In my opinion, they all did what was within their power to provide the most cost-efficient care for us.

Dr. Rhee explained the options, heard my concerns, and offered a recommendation of treatment, but I always felt like I had a choice. In fact, during our last cycle she explained a concern she had, but also shared that she was comfortable with either course of action we decided on. We also experienced low numbers of eggs during our 2 retrievals. Dr. Rhee explained why she was comfortable and confident with continuing the cycle and we were lucky enough to end up with being pregnant with twins. Dr. Rhee was compassionate, provided me with all the necessary information and never made us feel pressured into a decision. The day I was discharged with a healthy pregnancy was an very exciting day, yet a little sad because Dr. Rhee and her team were more like family throughout our journey.

Explore your options, but you can be confident in a decision to seek treatment with Dr. Rhee.

After my OBGYN tested me for egg quality and reserve and tested my husband, Dr. Rhee began our treatment with a sonohysterosalpingogram. My tubes were not blocked, but I had dilation so Dr. Rhee recommended a hysterosalpingogram (HSG) before we moved forward with treatment. The HSG showed the dye coming through, but pooled. Dr. Rhee was comfortable with moving forward with treatment. Had it showed blockage, she would have removed the blocked tube. Because we were lucky enough to have our insurance cover IVF and we had previous pregnancy resulting in a genetic abnormality that was fatal, Dr. Rhee recommended IVF over IUI. IVF allowed us to do a genetic screening of the embryos (PGS). Because of my age and health, there was no concern or any reason to believe we wouldn't get a desired amount of eggs for the egg retrieval. I went through the first IVF cycle, but Dr. Rhee was only able to retrieve 5 eggs - 4 of which were mature. 1 egg did not make it to day 5. We tested 3 eggs with PGS. All came back abnormal. Dr. Rhee recommended another cycle of IVF and depending on how many eggs we got this time, we would bank the eggs and do another cycle. For our second IVF cycle, we changed the injections in hopes of more eggs. Unfortunately we only retrieved 3 eggs. But, we had high quality embryos again and 2 out of 3 made it to day 5 (not very common). Because the first PGS test showed all embryos to be abnormal, but abnormal for unusual chromosomal issues that would either cause an early miscarriage or would autocorrect, we talked to Dr. Rhee about skipping the PGS test and doing a fresh egg transfer. Dr. Rhee was very supportive and comfortable with the option. After much consideration, we took a leap of faith and skipped the PGS test and transferred our only 2 embryos. Six days later I got a positive home pregnancy test and Dr. Rhee did a blood test 9 days after the transfer and confirmed I was pregnant. We went for blood work 2 more times to monitor numbers and then went in for an ultrasound at 6 weeks were it was confirmed we were having twins. We heard 2 heartbeats - it was the best day! Dr. Rhee scanned me weekly through 9 weeks when I was discharged with a healthy pregnancy.

I was lucky enough to have insurance coverage so all i paid was my out of pocket maximum. Leading to this were office visit copays, paying for injections before delivery and paying 50% of procedure cost prior to the procedure. The remaining balance was due after it went through insurance after procedure completion.

Dr. Rhee made us aware of the possibility of embryos splitting and shared all the information on the risks of carrying multiples. She also shared that based on my age and other factors, one embryo was recommended. But, she gave us the option of 1 or 2, but would not do more. I was very happy to be able to make my own decision after hearing all of the facts.

Dr. Rhee is fantastic, I truly can't imagine having gone to anyone else. In our very first appointment, she took the time to get to know us and our story. She had already reviewed all of our charts, and had a game plan in mind for what came next. She spent a significant amount of time explaining what would happen and how it would happen to us as well as any risks involved. She could get started right away, and she held our hand through the whole process. While Dr. Rhee is incredibly smart, she also has a wonderful bedside manner. She made the process fun and even though we didn't conceive through "conventional means" she really made the process special for us. I'll never forget what she's done for our family. Dr. Rhee couldn't have been more wonderful, I honestly wouldn't change a single thing!

I would tell a prospective client to meet her as soon as they're ready; the whole process isn't as scary as you think, she makes it wonderful!

While I don't recall specific names, I can tell you that we did two transfers. The first time we did an egg retrieval and a fresh transfer. During that process I took injectable and oral hormones/prescriptions while building the egg reserve, a trigger shot, and then after transfer. We did not have success on this transfer. Next we did a frozen egg transfer, adjusting protocol and increasing the number of embryos transferred to two [rather than one on the first try]; we had success! Because we didn't have to do a retrial, this process was simpler. We still had injectables and oral medication, slightly altered from the first round. I am currently 9.5 weeks pregnant.

The cost for the care with Dr. Rhee was around $16,000, I think.

Dr. Rhee was fantastic to work with. My husband and I didn't know what to expect and because of that were nervous about going down the path of infertility treatment. Dr. Rhee immediately made us feel at ease our first visit, as she truly got to know us and our background and took a genuine interest in our journey. She was very knowledgeable and immediately came up with a treatment plan moving at a pace we were comfortable with. As setbacks occurred, she would quickly adjust the plan to ensure that we were getting the best treatment for success. We saw her several times within our treatment, and she was always available if we needed any additional information. We couldn't have been happier with her professionalism, knowledge, and how she treated us.

Don't be nervous and don't hesitate to get started right away. Dr. Rhee will immediately make you feel at ease and works with patients to understand where they are at in the process and how aggressive they want to be with treatments. She would often give us several options and take the time to discuss them in depth so we could make a decision we were comfortable with. She's the best!

We originally started off with femara and timed intercourse, as my husband and I weren't ready for some of the more aggressive treatment plans emotionally yet. However, after the first cycle of femara it was confirmed that I wasn't ovulating, so Dr. Rhee immediately adjusted the treatment plan and added in additional monitoring. We used both femara and injectables (Gonal G) the second cycle along with a trigger shot and an IUI. That cycle resulted in a chemical pregnancy. The next cycle, which was successful we stuck with the femara and injectables (Menapur) and IUI. Dr. Rhee adjusted the type of injectable as I was close to over-responding on a low-dose of Gonal F. The 2nd IUI cycle was our successful cycle!

I believe that Dr. Rhee is very knowledgable and has her patients' interests at heart. She was very thorough and honest at the consultation - spending over an hour with us. During our visit to discuss the failed embryos, she did. It rush at all and listened to what our concerns were. She allowed us to move forward on our own timeline and understood if we could not do it financially or emotionally.

Ask questions.

I believe the 1st was a standard protocol... 150 menopur, 225u follistim with an hcg 10000u trigger. Embryologist said the egg quality was poor- not much resistance with ICSI. 9 eggs, 7 mature, 4 fertilized, 0 made it to day 5. I believe the 2nd cycle was a low dose flare protocol to aid in egg quality. Initially I was on dexamethasone 1mg, 75 menopur, 125u follistim, omnitrope & lupron with a hcg trigger. 11 eggs, 7 mature, 4 fertilized and transferred day 3.

14000 retrieval and transfer with monitoring

Dr. Rhee was extremely compassionate and made sure all of our concerns were addressed. Despite seeing how busy her office was at times, I always felt like I was her only patient. She is knowledgeable, trustworthy, and comforting. Throughout our treatment, I felt like we were given decisions of which route we wanted to go, and able to make decisions based on financial impact and how aggressive we wanted to be.

You could be in for a long, tiring journey, but you are in absolutely wonderful hands!

She wanted to get started quickly. I didn't feel like we had the time we wanted to have our questions answered. Not overall compassionate after I passed out from a procedure. I left feeling like I don't want these people taking care of me when i am under anthesthia

Go somewhere else. Go to someone who has more experience. She just started practicing on her own at the start of 2016

Julie Rhee is exactly what you want in a doctor, especially when you're going through the overwhelming emotions that infertility causes. Julie is extremely intelligent, a clear communicator, and genuinely cares for her patients. She was able to provide clear options and give me hope.

I would recommend a prospective patient to not waste time going to see Julie. I know it can be overwhelming at the thought of starting fertility treatment after trying to get pregnant naturally on your own for awhile, but seeing Julie is exactly the next step you should take. She also provides many options for how to get pregnant and does full testing to see if she can determine the root cause before starting any tests.

She is an amazing doctor. She explained things in a simple manner. And always had answers for my questions with specific research/study in mind. She was genuinely worried for me when I got sick from the injections in both IVF cycles.

Ask a lot of questions!

Frozen transfer with two 5 day embryos...both successful.

She mentioned multiple times the risk of transferring 2 instead of 1
